Classical Hinduism

Classical Hinduism is a major religious and cultural tradition originating from the Indian subcontinent. It encompasses a diverse range of beliefs, practices, and texts, with key concepts including dharma (duty/righteousness), karma (action and its consequences), and moksha (liberation from the cycle of rebirth). The religion is characterized by a rich pantheon of gods, rituals, and philosophical schools, notably the Vedas and Upanishads. It emphasizes the importance of living a virtuous life and understanding the interconnectedness of all beings. Classical Hinduism has deeply influenced Indian culture, art, and society throughout history.
